Li Qingzhao is the author of the biography of Zi He Xing in the Southern Song Dynasty. This is a word to describe boudoir thought. This sentence seems dull, only telling the thoughts of a talented woman, but it is not shocked or angry, but touching. Let us enjoy it together!

Nan Ge Tian Zi Shang Xing He Chuan

The stars in the sky turn [1], and the curtain on earth hangs [2]. Liangsheng pillow [3] was full of tears, undressed and asked [4] what is night [5]?

The canopy of Castanopsis tetrandra [6] is small, and the leaves of Nelumbo nucifera [7] are thin. Old weather, old clothes, only feelings, unlike home! [8]

Make an appreciative comment

The date of this song "Nan Gezi" is unknown, but judging from the hatred of national subjugation, it seems that it was written after living in Jiangnan.

"The milky way in the sky turns and the curtain on earth hangs", which starts with a sentence, is an unusual scene, which contains deep affection. "Galaxy turn" is the galaxy turn, and the word "turn" indicates the flow of time, and it is a long span; If people can care about this, they will know that they didn't sleep at night. "Hanging curtains" refers to the dense curtains hanging in the boudoir. The curtain "hangs", but the experience of the people involved is unknown. "Galaxy Turn" is called "Tian", which is a common language. "Curtain hanging" means "person", but it's unusual. The antithesis of "heaven and earth" means "people are separated from heaven", and its weight suddenly becomes heavier. It seems that I am a little sad and want to complain, so I will take the lead together. This word directly describes the sadness of husband and wife's death. Although it seems calm and wave-free, it is actually undercurrent.

The first two sentences are "tears cold pillow" To diarrhea. Cold pillow is not only autumn weather, but also loneliness and bitterness. "Tears streaming down her face", the so-called "sadness comes from it and can't be broken". At this time, I have to get rid of sadness and people's fatigue. "Take off your clothes and ask about the evening." Originally, I was lying in my clothes and came here to undress and want to sleep. But it's very late to go to bed now. The opening "Star River Turn" has already hinted that "Talking about Night" here is more explicit. "Good night", its (j: and), auxiliary word. "What's Night Like" comes from The Book of Songs Xiaoya Pavilion Liao "What's Night Like? The night is still early (half); How about the evening? Embroidering at night (till morning) "means that the night is deep and near morning. "Chat and ask" is my own estimation, which describes the poet's modality. The situation came out and my heart was exposed. Let's move on to the next paragraph.

The next song directly expresses the lyric of "the lotus is small and the lotus leaf is thin", which is an over-article, and uses the sentence of "Luo Yi" in the previous song to describe the flower embroidery on the clothes. When I undressed and slept, I saw the embroidered flowers on my clothes and gave birth to some ideas. "Cuitie" and "Lily" are upside down, which are two methods of sticking Cuitie and selling gold, that is, sticking Cui Yu into a lotus-like pattern and embroidering a lotus leaf pattern with gold thread. This is a woman's dress, which poets always wear. Seeing you again now, when I am lonely at night, I can't help but think of things that happened a long time ago. "Old weather and old clothes" is a very common spoken language, and only those who have experienced vicissitudes can understand many contents and feelings contained in it. The phrase "hometown time is not like hometown time" is also "old time". The cool weather in autumn is still the same, and Jin Cuiluo's clothes are still the same. People who wear these clothes are also old people living in the past, but people's "feelings" are not as old as before! Ordinary words, repeated reading, only feel sad every word.

Using vulgar characters is the most prominent feature of Yi 'an Ci. Every word and sentence is refined, and daily spoken English is harmonious into poetry. This word seems dull, but in fact it just expresses the mind of a talented woman. It is not surprised or angry, but it is touching.

explain

This poem is about boudoir thoughts.

Galaxy is another name for Tianhe. The galaxy moved, and time passed quietly. On the earth, the lights are still on. "Go to Mochou Hall and stay up all night" (Li Shangyin has no title) is a self-enclosed emotional world. But the poet doesn't understand the meaning of "love" and only says "cold pillow". Li Qingzhao's "Drunken Flowers" also has a description of "jade pillow and gauze kitchen, the night is cool". This implicit and diffuse coolness reveals the poet's lonely feeling of staying alone in an empty boudoir. As a woman in feudal society, she must dilute and refine this feeling, so she called it "cold life" and "cold head" This is a slow and penetrating process, not intense or explosive, but longer, deeper and everywhere. When the situation was not comparable, I unbuttoned my clothes and asked, "What is night?" Its (j: and), auxiliary word. What a good night is from the Book of Songs? Xiaoya? "Yuan Liao" How about the evening? The night is still early (not more than half). " Asked softly, pointing out the long night after lying down.

The second part closely follows Luo Yi's writing of boudoir thoughts from the perspective of clothing. Lotus and lotus root are commonly used images in folk songs, which are homophonic with pity and even, and are used to express love life and arouse the association of love between men and women. Selling gold and jade refers to decorating clothes with gold and jade, which is extremely glamorous; Lotus root leaves are thin, which means that it is easy to say goodbye and the love life is short. The halter includes two pieces: the weather is the same as before, the clothes are the same as before, but the feelings are different.

What is relatively constant is honesty and clothing; What changes is current affairs and human feelings, and only under the contrast of "unchanging" can the intensity of "change" be shown. The poet did not specify the content of this change, but it was related to the social unrest at the turn of the North-South Song Dynasty. Related to this, it goes without saying that the poet's husband died and his family was divorced from life!
